Mark the following statements with “T” if they are true or “F” if they are false.1.The syntactic rules of any language are finite in number, but they arecapable of yielding an infinite number of sentences.2.Although, a single word can also be uttered as a sentence, normallya sentence consists of at least a subject, its predicate and an object.\3.The sentences are linearly structured, so they are composed of sequenceof words arranged in a simple linear order.4. his upon an idea.idea hit upon John.In the above sentences, the subject and object constituent by the sentences switch their position. Although sentence b is absurd, it is still grammatical, because John and an idea are of the same phrasal category.5.Though they are of a small number, the combinational rules are powerfulenough to yield all the possible sentences and rule out the impossible ones.6.In a sentence like Mary likes flowers, both Mary and flowers are notonly Nouns, but also Noun Phrases.7.The recursive property can basically be discussed in a category-basedgrammar, but not in a word-based grammar.8.An XP must contain an X which is called the phrasal head.9.In the phrase this very tall girl, tall girl is an obligatory elementand the head of the phrase.10.a. The man beat the child. b. The child was beaten by the man.In the above sentences, the movement of the child from its original place to a new place is a WH- movement.11.Tense and aspect, the two important categories of the verb, nowadaysare viewed as separate notions in grammar.12.The structuralists regard linguistic units as isolated bits in astructure (or system).13.IC analysis can help us to see the internal structure of a sentenceclearly and it can also distinguish the ambiguity of a sentence. 14.Structural linguists hold that a sentence does only have a linearstructure, but it has a hierarchical structure, made up of layers of word groups.15.In Saussure’s view, the linguist cannot attempt to explain individualsigns in a piecemeal fashion. Instead he must try to find the value of a sign from its relation to others, or rather, its position in the system.16.The theme-rheme order is the usual one in unemotional narration, whichis a subjective order.17.What is new in Halliday is that he has tried to relate the functionsof language to its structure.18.Sentence is a basic unit of structure in functional grammar.19.The interpersonal function of language refers to the idea held byHalliday that language serves ot establish and maintain social relations.20.Finite is a function in the clause as a representation, both therepresentation of outer experience and inner experience.21.The relations of co-occurrence partly belong to syntagmatic relations,partly to paradigmatic relations.22.According to Chomsky, grammar is a mechanism that should be able togenerate all and only the grammatical sentences of a language.23.In English, the subject of a sentence is said to be the doer of anaction, while the object is the person or thing acted upon by the doer.Therefore, the subject is always an agent and the patient is always the object.24.In English, the object is recognized by tracing its relation to wordorder and by inflections of pronouns.25.Classes and functions determine each other, but not in any one-to-onerelation.26.The syntactic rules of a language are finite in number, and there area limited number of sentences which can be produced.27.Structuralism views language as both linearly and hierarchicallystructured.28.Phrase structure rules provide explanations on how syntacticcategories are formed and sentences generated.29.UG is a system of linguistic knowledge and a human species-specificgift which exists in the mind of a normal human being.30.Tense and aspect are two important categories of the verb, and theywere separated in traditional grammar.II. Fill in each of the following blanks with (an) appropriate word(s). 1.As is required by the ______, a noun phrase must have case and caseis assigned by verb, or preposition to the _________ position or by auxiliary to the ________ position.2.Adjacency condition states that a case _________ and a case _______should stay adjacent to each other.3.The general movement rule accounting for the syntactic behavior of anyconstituent movement is called __________.4.The phrase structure rules, with the insertion of the lexicon, generatesentences at the level of _________.5.The application of syntactic movement rules transforms a sentence fromthe level of ________ to that of ______.6.In English there are two major types of movement, one involving themovement of an NP is called __________ movement and the other a WH-word is called _________movement.7.a. The boy ate the apple.c.The apple was eaten by the boy.In Sentence b, the boy and the apple are moved from their original positions in Sentence a to new positions, with the boy _________ to the right and the man ________ to the left.8.In the sentence the man was bitten by a dog, the man is both the _______subject and the ___________ object.9.The decision on where to make the cuts in IC analysis relies on ________:whether a sequence of words can be substituted for a single word and the structure remains the same.10.IC Analysis is different from the traditional parsing in that ICemphasizes the function of the _________ level-word group, seeing a hierarchical structure of the sentence as well.11.The subordinate constituents are words which modify the head andconsequently, they can be called __________.12.John believes (that the airplane was invented by an Irishman).The part in the bracket is a __________ clause.13.In order to account for the case of the subject in passive voice, wehave another two terms, ________ and _________.14.English gender contrast can only be observed in ________ and a smallnumber of _______ and they are mainly of the natural gender type. 15.There is tendency to make a distinction between phrase and ________,which is an extension of word of a particular class by way of modification with its main features of the class unchanged.16.Recursiveness, together with _________, is generally regarded as thecore of creativity of language.17.Normally a sentence consists of at least a subject and a predicatewhich contains a ________ verb or a verb phrase.18.The sequential order of words in a sentence suggests that the structureof a sentence is ________.19.The starting point of an utterance which is known in the givensituation and from which the speaker proceeds is named ________. 20.___________ structure can become the sole responsible structure forsemantic interpretation by the introduction of the trace theory.III.

文体学课后题1、2单元1Identify and classify patterns of sound repetition in the following examples. 1)Words and phrases shilly-shally = pararhyme super-duper = rhyme high and mighty = assonance fair and square = rhyme kith and kin = reverse rhyme toil and moil = rhyme part and parcel = reverse rhyme by hook or by crook = rhyme 2)Pride and Prejudice = alliteration The Love ’s labour Lost = alliteration Of Mice and Man = alliteration Bill Rogers, Marvelous Marathon Man = alliteration Father in a Fix = alliteration Witch Watch = alliteration The Wonder of Waterfall = alliteration 3)Advertisements --Drinka Pinta Milka Day = sound elision --Extra Pintas Warma Winta = sound elision --Be different daily. Be dreamy or dramatic. Experiment, but still economise. Be bold and be beautiful —but don ’t break the bank. = (in order) alliteration; alliteration; reverse rhyme; alliteration 2 The underlined word(s) in each of the following examples 1)Nim Chimpsky sounds like Noam Chompsky, who believes that man has a language learning device in the mind, which enables the child to learn the language however badly it is taught. This makes man different from animal, which does not have such a device. That is why chimpanzee (who is considered to be the most intelligent animal) can never learn the language however hard it is taught. 2)Romeow is a word imitating the sound made by a cat and shares the same pronunciation with the main character in Shakespeare ’s tragedy Romeo and Juliet. Romeo has deep love for Juliet. It indicates that Romeow the cat has affection for the master. 3) Record shop named Moby Disc, which implies it is a huge shop of its kind, for it reminds one of the Moby Dick, a book which depicts people hunt a huge whole called Moby Dick. 3 1)phonological devices in the following extract. A creak of hinges...aisle. In this passage the authors uses alliteration high-heeled, assonance tiled surface of the central aisle. What is more conspicuous is the use of onomatopoeic words such as creak, booming thud, flutter, tiptap, which present the different kinds of noises heard in the church. The use of such words help the reader share the same experience of the writer and make the description vivid and believable. 2)Read the following extract from the novel Adventures of Tom 3)Sawyer and comment on the graphological forms. “TOM!”No answer. ...--Mark Twai This is one episode of the novel Adventures of Tom Sawyer, depicting how Granny is looking for Tom, who is naughty and hiding under the bed. The different form of letters with punctuation marks indicates how Granny speaks. When we read it, we have the feeling of watching Granny on a stage play. For example, “TOM!” is said louder than “Tom!”. “Y-o-u-u, Tom !” indicates Granny drawls her voice and with unusual loudness so as to be heard fa r away. The exclamation marks “!” show her emotion, and the dash “—“ implies her sudden stop. The italicized through emphasizes the contrast with “over ” and “under ”, humorously implying her glasses are intended for ornament rather than practical use. In the whole passage, we see the only character Granny, who is speaking to herself. It is very much like a stage monologue. After reading, we have a vivid image of Granny in our mind. And there is a touch of humour all through. 3单元1 What are thethree ways of clause classification? classification according to constituents, verb phrase and functions. By constituents clauses can be grouped into SV(A), SVO(A), SVC, SVOO, SVOC. By verb phrase we have finite clause, non-finite clause and verbless clause. By functions clauses can be categorized either as independent clause or dependent clause. 2 how do we distinguish situation types? By according to meaning or sense of the verb. 3 Name the participant roles in action types? The participant roles in action types are: agentive role (doer of the action), external force (causer of the action), intrumental role (tool to do the action with), recipient role (receiver of the action) and objective role (the affected or the result of the action).4What is a simple sentence? What is a multiple sentence?Directly/indirectlyA simple sentence conforms to the basic clause structure SV(O) (C) (A).A multiple sentence consists of more than one clause. It may be either a compound sentence,a complex sentence, or a mixed sentence.D :nominal clauses function as S O C .I:relative clauses function asmodified in NP and comparative c f as m in NP ADJP5 What is the difference between a minor sentence and an incompletesentence?Neither type conforms to the basic clause structure. But a minorsentence is supposed to be “complete ” in the sense that it is finished.An incomplete sentence never comes to its end because of sudden interruption or other reasons. For example,(1) Attention, please. (2) Help!(3) Going to the lecture? (4) Why are you late? Because I —Of the four sentences, (1) (2) (3) are minor sentences whereas (4) is anincomplete.6 What are the major components of a noun phrase?What is the use ofpre-modification?What is the function of post-modification?A complete noun phrase consists of four constituents: determiner, pre-modifier, head and post-modifier. The determiner can be an article,numerals, numeral pronouns; all the words between the determinativeand the head are pre-modifier, whatever part of speech they belong to;the head can be a noun or a pronoun; the post-modifier is usually a prepositional phrase, a noun phrase, a non-finite clause, a relative clause, etc.Frequent use of pre-modification in newspaper headlines caneconomize space, and arouse the reader ’s interest as well because pre-modification is usually short, thus cannot spell out details. This keeps the reader in suspense and kicks up their eagerness to find out.Pre-modification tends to be informal and appears in less formal style.Post-modification can be very long and complicated. Using post-modification can give enough room for details and for further information. Therefore, it is frequently used in more formal contexts, for instance, written language. Written legal English prefers post-modification in noun phrases, because the composer of a legal document must ensure that it conveys meaning exactly and explicitly,guarding against any possible misinterpretation.7 What are the three basic factors in the formation of written texts?For effective presentation of information and language processing on the part of the reader, we usually attach importance to sequence, segmentation and salience in the formation of texts, both spoken and written.8 Which type of branching is common in informal speech? Which typeof branching is preferred in written styles?Right-branching is common in speech, in relaxed and informalpresentation of ideas.A writer may favor right-branching and useshort, simple sentences to represent a narrative style of simplicity, directness and intensity. Left-branching, however, is better adapted to writing because it is structurally more compact andlogical, and it is usually more formal. Since subordinate ideas arepresented first, postponing the main idea, readers often feel insuspense and try to read on to obtain the main idea towards theend of the sentence.9 What is the basic phrase order?What are the stylistic effects of fronting and postponement?The basic phrase order in an English declarative clause is more or lessfixed: SV(O)(C)(A), with A being mobile in position. The change ofthe order can make a particular language unit more salient.Fronting refers the movement of a sentential element from its usual position to the front, and postponement refers the movement of alinguistic unit from its normal place towards the end of the sentence. In both cases the elements moved are highlighted. Forexample,(1) Talent Mr. Micawber has, capital Mr. Micawber has not. (frontingtalent and capital for emphasis)(2) A car stopped and out stepped the President of the University.(Postponing President of the University again for emphasis)10 What is syntactic parallelism and its function?Syntactic parallelism refers to the repetition of the same syntactic form (e.g. tense, aspect) and phrase/clause structure in two or more neighboring clauses or sentences. It reinforces meaning by contrast or antithesis, or helps to build up an emotional climax. For example, See how they can saw. Power saw. And drill. Power drill. And sand. Power sand. This is an advertisement for selling Power Brand series of tools. When the reader finishes the reading, they will not forget the brand name Power.4单元2 What is the difference in the effect between the use of Latinate and that of native words? Why? Generally speaking, Latinate words are words of science, religion and official communication; and in most cases, they help to create the effect of coolness, dignity and intellectual distance.Words of Anglo-Saxon origin constitute English-speaking people ’s basic vocabulary.Such words are emotionally charged. A high percentage of Anglo-Saxon words is quite usual in informal style.3 What is the difference between a general word and a specific word? Is it true that use of specific words should always be recommended? A word is general when it refers to a group of objects or a class of objects or action, and specific when it refers to a member of that group or class. The relationship between a general (superordinate) and specific (subordinate) term is hyponymy. General terms are often too vague to convey any precise meaning. The use of specific words ismore informative in detail and can evoke vivid images in the reader ’sor hearer ’s mind. However, general terms are preferred, when there is no need for specification, or when the user wants to leave things vague for some (tactical) reason. 5 What is repetition ?What is reiteration? Why should people employ repetition and reiteration in speech or writing? When a linguistic form is used twice or more, the result is repetition. For example, We begin our morning class at 8:00. Lunch begins at 11:30 and afternoon classes begin at 2:00 again. When the same idea is repeated in a different form, it is reiteration. For example, We begin our morning classes at 8:00, and afternoon classes start at 2:00 again. In literary texts, repetition is usually rhetorical. The intensive repetition of an expression can be a powerful thematic device. It helps todirect the reader ’s attention to the interpretation of its significance. Whatever is repeated is emphasized. Reiteration is used to avoidthe monotonous effect of the repetition of the same expression. 6 What is collocation? What is the use pf analyzing lexical collocation of an item in a piece of language?Collocation refers to the concurrence of words or conventional use of certain words together in a text. In a given text, the collocates of an item constitute its lexical context which determines the meaning of theitem. This device may contribute to the theme of the text. The analysis of collocation can help us grasp the main idea of the text. 7 The following are groups of specific words. Name a general wordwhose meaning is included in the meaning of the specific words. 1) stride, strut, march, amble, strode, saunter (walk) 2) drag, haul, heave, wrench, tow (pull)3) whisper, chatter, babble, mumble, mutter (talk) 4) bottle, vase, jug, cup, pot, barrel, bucket, box (container) 5) car, jeep, van, tanker, minibus, cart, bicycle (vehicle)8 The words in each of the following groups have roughly a similar conceptual meaning. Discuss the difference in their associatemeanings. 9 Compare the A B extracts in terms 1) the percentage of Anglo-Saxon words; 2) the percentage of Latinate words of three syllables and more. In A of the 48 words, only six come from other languages, four of which are from French, but in B of the 39 words, 18 words are from Latin and another one from Greek. Since Latinate words make up a high percentage in B, it is much more difficult to understand. 10 Comment on the adjective used in the following advertisement. (Manhattan shirts, slacks and accessories) To persuade the would-be customers to buy the product, the author uses a series of appreciative adjectives: confident, correct, successful, strong,savvy, fashionable, happy, robust, virile, and wise, plus famous to showwhat good things Manhattan Brand products would bring to the buyer.5单元1 What is dialect?A dialect is a variety habitually adopted by people in a certain region(regional dialect) or by people of a certain social group (social dialect).Dialects differ from one another in vocabulary, grammar andpronunciation.one regional dialect speaker may be able to speak more than one socialdialect when needed.2 What is the difference between dialect and accent?Accent is the special phonological features shown by one who speaks adialect. It is regional in nature. A dialect can be spoken with differentaccents, standard and non-standard. A person may shift from onedialect to another while speaking but s/he is unable to cover his or heraccent. For example, a Londoner speaks British English with a Londonaccent, but a person born and brought up in Manchester may speakBritish English with a Manchester accent.3 What is Standard English? Is there a standard accent with whichpeople speak Standard English?Standard English refers to the particular socially-favoured variety which is based on the speech and writing of educated users of the language. With a widely accepted, codified grammar and vocabulary, SE is primarily used for public communication: used in books and newspapers, official documents and news broadcasts; in schools, taught to non-native learners of English.Yes. In each regional variety, one accent is most widely acceptedsuch as RP (received pronunciation) in British English. Since this accent is related to BBC broadcaster, the royal family and educated speech, it is considered to be the standard accent in Britain.6单元11)What does ‘channel limitation ’ mean? How does channel limitation affect language use?Channel limitation means that the transmission of a message is limitedto one channel only —visual or auditory. Speech, in most cases, has no channel limitation. Talking face-to-face, both the speaker and hearer can see and hear each other. Apart from the language, gestures, facialexpressions, shared knowledge, and situation all contribute to the communication. Therefore, the language is often inexplicit. Writing, onthe other hand, has channel limitation. Then the language should beexplicit. For example, The teacher standing there is her mother ”,whichis understandable if the two speakers are together in the same context.But in written language such should be forbidden. We should make itexplicit like The teacher standing under the tree in front of theclassroom building is Wang Qian ’s mother .2)In what ways does spontaneously spoken language differ fromprepared written form?In spontaneous speech one has little time for planning or revising oneutterance. While speaking, one has to monitor what has been said andits response by the hearer, and simultaneously to plan the next utterance.If one ’s planning falls behind the delivery, the speech ischaracteristically broken up by the following features of normalnon-fluency: filled/ unfilled pauses, unintended repetitions, and falsestarts. For example,He was - as it were - you know him do you - how shall I say er- withdrawn - er shut-in as though as though he had a kind of - mmgoldfish bowl round his head - not very easy …Appreciative Neutral Pejorative work drudgery, toil, grind fashion, style vogue fad policeman, cop flatfoot civil servant government official bureaucrat famous, celebrated, renowned notorious portly, stout, chubby, plumpfat adventurous, daring reckless, rash学无止境7单元1What is role relationship? Give some examples.By role relationship we mean the relationship between the rolesadopted by addresser and addressee in a given situation. Rolerelationships range from temporary to permanent: casual acquaintances on a train, customer —salesman, colleagues in an office, management —employees, teacher —pupil, parent —child. 2 By what scales do we classify language features typical of various attitudes? Language features indicating the attitude are usually classified along four scales: formality, politeness, impersonality and accessibility 3.What factors affect the degrees of formality? The degrees of formality are determined by the role relationships, number of hearers, and contexts of situation, such as a public lecture, playground at playtime, church service, cocktail party, and so on. 4 How does language vary in terms of politeness? Language varies according to the degree of intimacy between the address and addressee; the degree of social distance separating the addresser and addressee. Language becomes more and more polite when the addressee is more senior in status and les intimate in relation. 5 What are the basic patterns of the use of address forms? The basic address patterns include: Title (Professor, Doctor, Reverend), Title + Last Name (Professor Zhang, Mr Smith, Miss Thatcher), First name + Last Name (Michael Hall, John Smith), Last Name (Smith,Thatcher), First Name (Michael, John), Shortened First Name (Mike=Michael, Elizabeth=Liza/Liz), Nickname (Piggy, Bully) and Terms of Endearment (Darling, Dear, Honey, Sweet). 6 What is linguistic impersonality? Language becomes impersonal when it avoids direct reference to the addresser and addressee. That is the writing avoids the use of personal pronouns such as I, we, you, etc 7 . How do we measure the degrees of accessibility? We can measure the degrees of accessibility by the following formula: FOG INDEX = 0.4 (L+H) L = the average sentence length in a passage H = the percentage of hard (inaccessible) words in the passage Suppose a passage has: --a total number of words 120 --the number of sentences 6 --the number of “hard ” words 16L: 120 ÷ 6 = 20 H: (16 ÷ 120) × 100 = 13.3 Fog index: 0.4 × (20 + 13.3) = 13.32 Since an easily accessible text is supposed to have a fog index of about 10, the mentioned text is just a little difficult. 8 Compare Extracts A and B in terms of the degree of accessibility.A There was real stress I had to face, about 1970, three years into publication of Rolling Stone (newspaper). The company was bankrupt in essence. I ’d gotten top ambitious.I remember one day, just driving around and waiting for an accident to happen. It wasn ’t suicide as such. It was just driving around very sloppily, saying. Fuck it, maybe somebody ’ll get me in an accid ent. I was facing failure, real failure. I ’d never faced complete failure before. I was really depressed. In retrospect, to go bankrupt with a little newspaper at the age of 24 is not the most terrible thing. It was absurd. It didn ’t last long. You reach a point where your confidence is really shattered. It takes other people to help build up your confidence. Come on now, face the bastards down. You start to build and put it back together. Jann Wenner, editor of Rolling Stone B (The passage is a parody of the speech style of an American politician, once a presidential adviser.) My on-going advisational capacity having been terminalised presidentially, I wish to submit myapplicationised notification for immediate considerational verification. Qualificationally, my recent policalisationalexperience has suitabilized me for the Editorship of the NS, both in literary manipulativeness and socioeconomic logistics, thereby ensuring financial viability. My aim would be the immediate terminalisation of readership fallout by content amendment through extreme conservation ….“Weekend Competition ”, NewStatesmanExtract A uses short sentences and most of them are simple.

所以,从超语法的角度来看,语法层次结构可以如下图所示:高级层次语篇(由广个或多个句子组成)句子(由一个或多个分句组成)分句(由一个或多个扣组组成)词组(由一个或多个词组成)词(由一个或多个词素组成)低级层次词素2. Morphemes词素 (Terms: morpheme, morph, allomorph, free morpheme and bound morpheme)(注:此部分内容的学习可以借鉴‘词汇学’的相关内容,然而必须注意两门课程描述的不同点。

)什么是词素(morpheme)词素是语法的最小区别性单位,即最低一级的语法单位。

词素的语音或拼写法的体现叫形素(morph)。

词素是一种抽象形式的成分,在不同的环境中一个词素可以由若干个不同的形素体现,如英语中的复数词素可以表现为/s,z,iz/。

某一词素在不同的环境中可以用不同的变体或词素变体(allomorph)表示。

所谓词素变体是指词素的非区别性变体,几个不同的变体一起构成一个词素。

词素又分为自由词素和粘附词素。

Chapter two Introduction-Grammatical Hierarchy语言(Language)是社会交际的工具,是音义结合的词汇和语法的体系。

语法(Grammar)是语言的组织规律Grammar is the structural system of a language.,它赋予语言以结构系统,而词汇(vocabulary)则是语言的建筑材料,它通过语法而赋予语言以意义内容。

The grammar of English is organized into five ranks:1.the sentence(句子), the clause(分句), the phrase(词组), the word(词)and the morpheme(词素).英语的语法结构具有层次性,分为五个不同的层次。

2. Each rank is composed of one or more than one grammatical unit of the immediate lower unit.每一层由一个或一个以上的低层次的语法结构组成。

3.A full sentence can generally be segmented rank by rank down to its smallest constituents---the morphemes.句子能够一层一层地切分到它的最小组成单位----词素。

●词素MorphemeThe morpheme is the minimum or smallest grammatical unit, also the smallest meaningful element of speech.词素是最小的语法单位,也是最小的语义单位。

Morphemes fall into two categories: free morphemes (自由词素) and bound morphemes (粘附词素).1、Free morphemes(自由词素): a free morpheme has a complete meaning and can stand by itself as a simpleword.自由词素指本身具有完整意义并能作为“简单词”而单独使用的词素。

英语本科-语法简答及名词解释

英语本科-语法简答及名词解释

1、Modal auxiliaries: meaning of modal auxiliaries can be divided into two categories: predictive and non-predictive. Thepredictive meaning is concerned with the speaker’s assumption or assessment of probility and, in most cases, indicates the speaker’s confidence or lack of confidence in the truth of his statement. Eg: it must be Juhn.2、Anaphoric reference: with regard to the direction that the reference points to in the text. The anaphoric reference suggestsretrieving information from the foregoing context. Eg: wow, you’ve got a huge house, I didn’t expect it to be so big. The cataphoric reference suggests the information from the forthcoming context.3、Two tenses and two aspects: two tenses- the present tense and the past tense; two aspects-the progressive aspect and theperfective aspect.4、Non-finite verbs: the non-finitive verbs are so called because they are not marked for tense or for subject-verb concord. Inform it has the features of aspect and tense, while in its function, it can be object, complement, adverbial, etc. we recognize three types of non-finite verbs: infinitive ( further divided into to-infinitive and bare infinitive,) –ing participle and –ed participle.5、Extraposition: is defined as “the replacement of the postponed item by a substitute form”. The extraposed item is almostalways a nominal clause, which satisfies the desire for end-weight. In function, the extraposed item can be subject or object;in form, it can be finite or non-finite. When we remove a clausal subject or object to the final position, we use the anticipatory it to fill in the slot. (Remove a clausal subject or object to the final focal position.)6、Tex: refers to a unified passage, is one that is not only structurally well-integrated but also semantically coherent.7、Modal auxiliaries features: are a special group of words that have unique features both in syntax and in semantics. They areoften described as inflectionally defective verbs, because in syntactic terms they lack a full set of forms- not having non-finite forms or being marked for concord with the subject in semantics, modal auxiliaries are all the more complicated because nearly all of them are polysemous and, as a consequence, their interpretation is such that we forever feel the need to resort to context for clues.8、Participles: they are divided into two groups, one is “-ing participle” the other is “-ed participle.” The former used to be called“the present participle ” or “the gerund.” now they are so termed because we attach our concern to form, not to meaning. Eg: she looked depressed. I regret telling you the truth.9、Fronting: refers to the removal of an item from its unmarked postsubject position to the marked presubject position. Eg: into alarge crowd of people the plane dived.10、Ellipsis: refers to leaving out sth. understood. Strictly speaking, we refer to incomplete sentences with such a structureas to presuppose a preceding item. In this sense, ellipsis sets up cohesion on the basis of structural recoverability with reference to the linguistic context. Eg: why give me two cups of coffee? I only asked for one.11、The antecedent: is that preceding item which the relative clause modifies. A typical antecedent is nominal. i.e: a noun ora noun phrase.12、Relative clauses: restrictive relative and non-restrictive relative clause. Restrictive relative clause is an integral part ofthe noun phrase and gives essential information for the identification of what its antecedents refer to. Eg: the girl who lives next door is now traveling in SH. Non-restrictive clauses which are separated by commas in that the latter only offers additional information which is not needed to indentify the person or thing we are talking about.13、The double relative clause: is a type of multiple postmodification which is realized by more than one relative modifyingthe same head word. Eg: this is the only book I bought which challenges this common belief. Mr. lee is the only person I know who offers an reasonable price.14、Gradable adjectives: refer to most adjectives that can take comparative forms, inflectional, or they can be modified byintensifiers like “very”“so” and graded on a scale of intensity.15、Postponement: is a means to make an emphatic statement by putting the important information at the end of thesentence. It is usually realized by active to passive transformation, by extraposition of a clause element, by discontinuity of adjacent elements or by various other means, eg: the flowers were destroyed by the rain.(passive.) it is not fun at all to make fun of a disabled man.(extraposition) she is the only girl in my class who can play the guitar.(discontinuity)16、Simple present: is used to refer to the past in such as: 1 newspaper headlines,2 photographic captions. 3 stage directions.17、The non-finite verbs: are so called because they are not marked for tense or for subject-verb concord. ( to infinitive, bareinfinitive, -ing participle, -ed participle)18、Subject complements: denote what the subject is or what the subject becomes.19、Aspect: reflects the way in which verb action is regarded or experienced with respect to time. Two aspects-theprogressive aspect and the perfective aspect.20、Given information: is assumed to be familiar to the receiver of the message because it was explicity provided in thepreceding linguistic context or implicity provided in view of the situational context or the shared cultural background.21、New information: is assumed to be unfamiliar to the receiver and hence is the most important part of the utterance.22、Predictive meaning of modal auxiliaries: is concerned with the speaker’s assumption or assessment of probability. Andin most cases, indicates the speaker’s confidence or lack of confidence. In the truth of his statement.23、The cataphoric reference: with regard to the direction that the reference points to in the text, the cataphoric referencesuggests the information from the forthcoming context. (Anaphoric reference retrieving information from the foregoing context.24、Double genitive: also refereed as the “post genitive.”Is so called because it is a combination the genitive and theof-phrase. eg: a friend of my father’s.25、Double relative clause: is a type of multiple postmodification which is realized by more than on relative clausemodifying the same head word. Falls into two types: one that consists of parallel clauses, it is usually coordinated by and, or or but. And the other of hierarchical clauses.26、WH-question: is a question that normally begins with a WH-series of word.27、Prepositions: are mainly used to relate people or things in place or in time.28、Inherent adjectives: denoting adjectives inherent qualities characterize the referent of the noun. Non-inherent adjectivesidentify qualities in and indirect way, they are to be interpreted in terms of extended meaning. eg: A big house. A big eater. 29、Stative adjectives: the majority of adjectives are stative in nature. Describing permanent inherent qualities which isparticularly when they are used attributively. Eg: big red tall pretty30、Dynamic adjectives: many adjectives can be used in the dynamic sense, especially when they occur in the predictiveposition to denote subjective measurement or suggest a temporary state. Eg: foolish rude ambition31、Gradable adjectives: most adjective can take comparative forms, inflectional or can be modified by intensifiers like veryand so and graded on a scale of intensity.32、Non-gradable adjectives: adjectives which only act as attribute, denoting provenance, with an absolute meaning arenon-gradable. Eg: mere latter excellent perfect French Chinese33、Restrictive adjective: helps identity the referent of the noun by describing its distinctive qualities. Non-restrictiveadjective merely provides some additional information which is usually not essential for the identification of the referent. 34、Be-passive: is the normal passive auxiliary, which may occur in different tense and aspect forms and with differentmodal auxiliaries and semi-auxiliaries.35、Get passive: is far less popular than be-passive. 1. get-passive is generally avoided in formal style, and even in informalEnglish it is far less frequent than be-passive. 2.And semantically, get-passive is typically used to refer to an event, rather thana state; 3.to denote the consequence, rather than the process of a event, and to lay emphasis on what happens usuallyunfavorably to the subject as a result of the event, rather than who actually causes the event.36、Unit nouns: also refereed to as “partities” are very special class of words that are used to specify the quantities of themodified noun.37、Predictive (shall/ will): also called “epistemic.” It expresses the speaker’s assumption or assessment of probability of afuture situation.38、Non-predictive (shall/ will): also called non-epistemic, interpretation of will or shall is subject-oriented .it typicallyexpresses the willingness or intention of person as represented by the subject of the sentence.39、Subordination: link of two units, usually two clauses at different syntactic level.40、Unit nouns: also referred to as partitives. Are a very special class of word that are used to specify the quantities of themodified noun。

状语从句非谓语动词作定语例句英语

状语从句非谓语动词作定语例句英语

状语从句非谓语动词作定语例句英语Adverbial clauses are a complex and versatile grammatical structure in the English language that can serve as modifiers in a sentence. One type of adverbial clause that is particularly interesting is the non-finite adverbial clause, where the clause contains a non-finite verb form such as an infinitive, gerund, or participle instead of a finite verb. These non-finite adverbial clauses can function as adjectives, providing additional information about a noun in the sentence.To begin, let us consider the infinitive form of the non-finite adverbial clause. An infinitive is the basic form of a verb, usually preceded by the particle "to." When used in an adverbial clause, the infinitive can provide information about purpose, reason, or result. For example, in the sentence "She studied hard to get a good grade on the exam," the infinitive clause "to get a good grade on the exam" modifies the verb "studied," explaining the purpose behind her studying. Similarly, in the sentence "To avoid the traffic, she took the back roads home," the infinitive clause "To avoid the traffic" modifies the main clause, providing the reason for her choice ofroute.Gerund phrases can also function as non-finite adverbial clauses. A gerund is the "-ing" form of a verb used as a noun. When placed in an adverbial clause, the gerund phrase can express time, manner, or cause. For instance, in the sentence "By working overtime, she was able to finish the project on time," the gerund phrase "By working overtime" modifies the main clause, indicating the manner in which she completed the project. Alternatively, in the sentence "Having studied the material thoroughly, she felt prepared for the exam," the gerund phrase "Having studied the material thoroughly" provides information about the time or circumstances before the main clause event.Finally, participles can be used in non-finite adverbial clauses as well. Participles are verb forms that function as adjectives, either in the present tense ("-ing" form) or the past tense ("-ed" or "-en" form). When used in an adverbial clause, participles can express time, cause, or condition. For example, in the sentence "Worried about the weather forecast, they decided to postpone their outdoor picnic," the present participle clause "Worried about the weather forecast" modifies the subject "they," indicating the reason behind their decision. Conversely, in the sentence "Having finished her chores, she was able to relax for the evening," the past participle clause "Having finished her chores" provides information about the timebefore the main clause event.It is important to note that non-finite adverbial clauses can be positioned in different places within the sentence, depending on the specific information they are conveying. They can be placed at the beginning, middle, or end of the main clause, and their placement can impact the emphasis and flow of the sentence. Additionally, these non-finite adverbial clauses can be combined with other grammatical structures, such as relative clauses or conditional clauses, to create even more complex and nuanced sentences.In conclusion, non-finite adverbial clauses, whether containing infinitives, gerunds, or participles, are a valuable tool in the English language for providing additional information and context within a sentence. By understanding how these structures function and the various ways they can be employed, writers can craft more sophisticated and expressive prose. The ability to effectively utilize non-finite adverbial clauses is an important skill for anyone seeking to improve their English language proficiency and communication abilities.。

stretch back to非谓语

stretch back to非谓语

stretch back to非谓语Stretching Back to Non-Finite ClausesIntroduction:One important grammatical structure in English is the non-finite clause. Non-finite clauses consist of verb forms that do not show tense and do not function as main verbs in a sentence. Instead, they serve other grammatical functions, such as expressing purpose, result, condition, or manner. In this article, we will explore the various uses and forms of non-finite clauses, specifically focusing on the structure "stretch back to", which indicates a long history or duration.I. Using "stretch back to" for Historical References:The phrase "stretch back to" is commonly used to refer to a historical timeframe. It indicates that something has existed or occurred for a long period of time. For example, "The town's origins stretch back to the 15th century," implies that the town has a long history dating back to the 15th century.II. Non-Finite Clauses with "Stretch Back To":A. Infinitive Clauses:1. To stretch back to...Example: "The artist's career seems to stretch back to the Renaissance era."2. To watch history stretch back to...Example: "As we climbed the ancient ruins, we watched history stretch back to the time of the Romans."B. Present Participle Clauses:1. Stretching back to...Example: "Stretching back to ancient times, the tradition has been passed down through generations."2. Watching, silently stretching back to...Example: "She sat by the river, watching, silently stretching back to the memories of her childhood."C. Past Participle Clauses:1. Stretched back to...Example: "The lineage of the royal family can be traced and stretched back to the medieval period."2. Having stretched back to...Example: "Having stretched back to prehistoric times, these fossils provide valuable insights into the earth's history."III. Expanding the Use of "Stretch Back To" in Context:Apart from historical references, the structure "stretch back to" can also be used metaphorically to imply a long-standing tradition, influence, or impact.A. Cultural Influences:1. The cultural influence of the Chinese stretches back to ancient civilizations.2. The festival's traditions stretch back to centuries ago, preserving cultural heritage.B. Scientific Discoveries:1. The origins of the universe stretch back to the Big Bang theory.2. Our understanding of genetics stretches back to Mendel's pioneering experiments.C. Societal Changes:1. The fight for equality stretches back to the suffrage movement.2. The history of human rights stretches back to ancient civilizations.Conclusion:In conclusion, "stretch back to" is a versatile phrase that can be used in various non-finite clauses to signify a historical timeframe, an ongoing tradition, or a deep-rooted influence. By using different forms of non-finite clauses, such as infinitive, present participle, and past participle, we can accurately convey the intended meaning and provide a rich and precise description. The non-finite clause structure adds depth and variety to our language, allowing us to express complex ideas and concepts more effectively.。

英语非谓语万能句作文English:In English, non-finite verb forms, also known as non-finite clauses, are versatile tools that can enhance the complexity and variety of sentences. Participles, gerunds, and infinitives are the three main types of non-finite verbs, each serving different purposes in constructing sentences. Participles, derived from verbs and functioning as adjectives, add descriptive details to nouns or pronouns. Gerunds, derived from verbs and functioning as nouns, can serve as subjects, objects, or complements within a sentence, providing continuity and depth to the discourse. Infinitives, the base form of a verb preceded by the word "to," can function as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs, offering flexibility in expressing various ideas and concepts. By mastering the use of non-finite verb forms, writers can create sentences with greater sophistication, fluidity, and precision, enriching the overall quality of their writing.中文翻译:在英语中,非谓语动词形式,也称为非谓语从句,是多才多艺的工具,可以增强句子的复杂性和多样性。
